You’ll learn how raw video files are transcoded into HLS streams, split into sm...

You’ll learn how stateless systems differ from stateful ones, why stateless design is a core principle behind RES...

ORMs make database interactions easy, readable, and fast to develop—but they often get blamed for performance issues in production systems.

GraphQL gives us flexibility in receiving responses, i.e. a client consuming the GraphQL API can demand what is required. Imagine an application for listing todo lists, containing fields like title, body, status, completedAt, createdAt, and updatedAt. The REST API implementation sends all these fields. In the frontend design, the todo lists are shown initially using a title and status i.e. only 2 fields title and status are required for the listi...

Well exploring helps us to search for things, which results in further research and learn more. As being a tech enthusiast myself, I am always wondering on how things work and how it is created. We are on this verge of the technology we are using, that these tech gadgets have been so developed that the basic functions we learn from books are in sufficient to gain the proper knowledge.
